My shoe collection is large by any standard (I learned from queen Carrie Bradshaw, after all), but I have a special place in my heart for sneakers. All of my best sneakers can easily complete and/or change any outfit. For busy moms, it’s easy to throw on a pair of classic white sneakers for a chic, put-together look, or don a colorblock pair for a fun and unique touch.

There are tons of different types of sneakers—classic white, colorful, athletic, and more—so we’ve taken some of the work off your already-full plate and searched the internet for the absolute best sneakers for moms, no matter the occasion. Keep scrolling to make your collection complete…
The Best Sneakers for Moms
Classic White Sneakers
Ah, the classic white sneaker. It’s the ultimate capsule wardrobe piece, and I find myself wearing them constantly, as they truly go with everything and work in every season. These sneakers make a great finishing touch to all of your mom uniform outfits, from denim shorts and a tee to a breezy dress.
Running & Athletic Sneakers
Whether you have a regular workout routine or just enjoy long walks through the neighborhood, you’ll need a great pair of running, walking, or general athletic sneakers that are supportive on your feet. The pairs below are not only super cute, but they’re the tried-and-true styles that our editors are obsessed with.
Slip-On Sneakers
Every busy mom needs a pair of easy sneakers that they can simply slip on on their way out the door. These sneakers are comfortable, quick, and cute all wrapped into one, making them an ideal choice for running errands and school pick-up. They also look great with everything from your favorite pair of pull-on shorts to your go-to pair of jeans.
Sporty-Chic Sneakers
The absolute perfect match to any athleisure outfit is a pair of sporty-chic sneakers. This category toes the line (get it?!) between running shoes and super casual sneakers, so that you can achieve that ultimate cool mom athleisure look. Plus, they’re just as comfy as your athletic shoes, so they’re suited for long days of walking.
Colorful Sneakers
Looking to add a fun and unique touch to an otherwise-plain spring or summer outfit? Look no further than a pair of colorful sneakers. Not only is this style super on-trend, it’s a way to bring something different into your wardrobe, even if you wear mostly neutrals. These sneakers are sure to have people stopping you to ask where you got them from.
